Childress As College Hoops 2K5 Cover Star

ESPN Videogames announced today that former Stanford University guard-forward Josh Childress will be featured as the cover athlete for ESPN College Hoops 2K5.

Already a first-round pick for the Atlanta Hawks, Childress was the keystone of the Stanford team, which ranked number one for the 2003-4 season. Childress became the first Cardinal player to be named Pac-10 Player of the Year.

"I'm honored to be part of ESPN College Hoops 2K5," said Childress. "In my downtime at Stanford, I loved playing ESPN College Hoops. The game brings together the things I loved about playing college ball - high emotion and fast action. The technology of ESPN College Hoops 2K5 is amazing. It does a great job capturing the essence of college basketball."

College Hoops 2K5 is set to hit the Xbox and PlayStation 2 this November. Stay tuned for more on the title as it comes in.
